Meet Alyneia Shepard, a young woman ready to take on the galaxy. Will she be truly ready for what she is about to face, will her friends and family support her? Will she find love? Or will she bring the supposed inevitable end upon the galaxy, failing to protect everyone?

Joker has a string of bad luck that lands him in the med bay. Luckily, Doctor Chakwas is there to take on her unofficial ship mom role.

Shepard may get her name in the annals of history, but she couldn't have done what she did without some help. This is the tale of those who support the legends. Gritty realistic attempt to provide depth to the canon story.

Garrus' thoughts and feelings regarding Commander John Shepard were easy to understand and explain: He respected and admired the human Spectre and would follow him into hell in a heartbeat. His feelings regarding his crewmate and friend, Lieutenant Jane Shepard, however, weren't as clear cut. She'd taken up residence in his head and wouldn't leave. Slight AU, Shepard Siblings.

When an accident with an experimental technology goes awry, William Wright is transported into an unfamiliar world, and is swept up into a mission to save the galaxy. A retelling of Mass Effect 1, from a different perspective. With a new, 'barely a self-insert' character. Some minor story details have been altered for the sake of the story.

In 2170 Mindoir was raided by batarian slavers, killing or enslaving the entire colony. It was thought that the first human spectre, Commander Shepard, was the sole survivor of the brutal attack. But when evidence that his sister is alive comes to light, his world is turned upside down. Profile has full description.

Mordin was afraid of this. Before his retirement, he'd heard rumors that DRAG-Zero had captured a unique asari and took it to a genetics lab, which is madness. Asari DNA is far too complex to be altered, enhanced...or hybridized. OR A spooky story with murder mystery elements, lots of queer OCs, and the Asari equivalent of Texas!

Liara T'Soni knows about humans. She lectured on Shanxi the day after Turians made contact, after all. Kate Shepard knows about asari. She trained with Serrice City Guard, after all. She crawled singles bars on Thessia with her unit. Neither is ready for who she meets in a mineshaft below the surface of a fiery world, or the war to come. (FShep & Liara, Multiple POV, Asari culture)

There was a time when they both thought all was well in the galaxy. That time has ended. A chance meeting between a soldier and a politician may change everything, but where will it lead them? In a galaxy ablaze, what will rise from the ashes?

After stopping the coup attempt on the Citadel, Kaiden rejoins the crew on Normandy, with a lot of questions for Commader Kacey Shepard about her time with Cerberus. It's about time he got an explanation! A causal retelling of Mass Effect 2 and a slight AU for Mass Effect 3. KaidenXFemShepard

Shepard must face the consequences of his actions in choosing to destroy the Alpha Relay, but he knows it's a waste of time as the Reapers are coming and a galaxy wide war will follow.

What happens when you throw in the idea of Stellaris, fuse it with Mass Effect, throw in a pinch of Halo, DOOM, and base the main race from LOZ? Madness.

As we continue to expand and refine the Premiseverse, I realized that there are a lot of voices and perspectives besides my own that have shaped, changed, and altered it. This is an exploration of those voices, in a series of one-shot stories being done as part of a contest on my Discord Site. This is the second year of the contest.
